Pefkohori is a cozy village, located on the coast of Kassandra Bay in the southeastern part of the Kassandra Peninsula. The first settlement on this place is considered the ancient city of Aegi. Archaeological excavations have also found traces of a settlement of the Roman period. Among the interesting finds on this territory is a treasure trove with coins of King Lisimah.
The modern village was founded in the late 16th century. For over 200 years (until 1965) it was called Kapsokhora ("heat" in Greek). However, it then got its present name, which comes from the words "pine" and "place".And no wonder, because the village is surrounded by pines.
It is the combination of the scent of pine forest, magnificent sandy beaches and clear sea water that makes this place so attractive for travelers.

We rented a convertible car for a week. We quickly contacted and agreed to rent and deliver the car the next day to the hotel.
The car is clean, fully operational, no complaints. It was very helpful that we could communicate in Russian and leave a deposit in cash, which really helped us in an unusual situation.
If necessary, we promptly kept in touch throughout the rental period. They go to the meeting and treat the problem with understanding

Very easy to book online and confirmed immediately. Prices are good and we appreciated the drop off at Aretsou Marina and the fact that you could insure an extra driver at no extra cost. Car was good but the best was the delivery chap who gave us recommendations of things to see in the area. Definitely recommend this company and would use again.

In the high season of tourism, there may be some problems with parking. However, you can find a free space near large hotels, supermarkets, restaurants and ports. You should pay attention to the color of the markings for parking. If the markings are white, the parking is free, blue is paid, yellow is for special vehicles, but local people use it for their cars.
